  • It's quite warm here Skinty, in spite of the rain- but i love soup and it fills them up cheaply. I have some dried stuff i can use as well- i have a hankering for chick peas now, and pea soup.

  • I forgot to add, that DS had a letter from the Digital switchover people. Basically because of her disabilities she was entitled for £40 for a freeview digi box and aerial shifting and whatnot-full installation.

    I thought it was a pretty good deal for the amount of work involved. If we had needed a full aerial they would have replaced that too.

    The elderly can get the same help too and the box is good quality. I know you can Sky in, but this is no subscription and they carry out all the work- worth a thought if anyone needs help.

    The number is free to call to see if you qualify

    0800 40 85 906.


    The offer includes:

    easy to use digital equipment
    home delivery and installation
    free aerial check and replacement if needed
    free helpline and returning advice
    12 month aftercare.

    They will site it anywhere in the house, not just main room. The scheme is run by the BBC and is there for older and disabled people. So if you care for someone you could also get one in their room.

    Hope it helps someone.

    I get that as well with nosey folks.:mad: Put a password on your computer and not one that they will guess.So when she logs in she will not get access to your settings. We all do that now- teenagers want their privacy etc and i can get mine ( if i get access to computer when they are on hols:mad:)
